Rushing Stream on Julier Pass Road
We turned onto the Julier Pass road at Silvaplana and traveled northward. At first the road climbed very steeply - on the steep curves most of the road surface was cobblestone.
Near the top we traveled several miles in completely snowcovered landscape. It was very bright but very pretty. Occasionally we would see a stream winding through the snow with a few sprigs of grass and a few wildflowers at its side. We traveled through corridors with snow up to 6 feet deep on the sides of the road.
